    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Are you really going to mock people who demonstrated way more faith than you guys? They believed Jesus was in a spaceship hidden in the comet tail, and they acted on their belief. You guys believe (so you say) Christians don't have to keep the Ten Commandments, but somehow can't bring...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Do you not understand that each time you evade our questions only serves to further convince the sincere truth seeker of the emptiness of your arguments? Does breaking the 4th commandment which forbids working on the Sabbath day make one as much a "transgressor of the law" as does breaking the...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    "ex•po•si•tion" - noun: "a comprehensive description and explanation of an idea or theory." It's more than acceptable to add words to explain truth so long as they don't distort truth. It's is a fact that the Mosaic Law of ceremonies and sacrifices was added in 1450 B.C. to the Ten...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    I prefer the KJV, but both versions are referring to when God wrote on the tables of stone. Have you tried Bible reading? It's easy to see that "works of His hands" and "all His commandments" turn out attention back to Mount Sinai - for those who are willing. Unwillingness to do God's will -...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    James says if you kill "thou art become a transgressor of the law". Does working on the 7th day Sabbath cause one to "become a transgressor of the law"?

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Sorry for assuming you understood the difference between "Scripture exposition" and the sin of "Scripture alteration". Now that you know the parenthetical portions are "Scripture exposition", please go back and re-read the post to gain a proper understanding of what Paul said.

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Here, I'll explain it again: "The works of His hands (God wrote the Ten Commandments on stone per Deuteronomy 10:1-4 KJV and Exodus 34:27-28 KJV) are verity and judgment; all His commandments are sure. They stand fast forever and ever and are done in truth and uprightness". - Psalms 111:7-7 KJV...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Several proofs: "Sin" is defined by 1 John 3:4 as "transgression of the law" and Ezekiel says Satan "sinned" in heaven. Cain and Moses knew it was wrong to murder. Rachel knew not to steal. Joseph knew adultery was "great wickedness and sin against God". Abraham knew not to lie. Jacob knew...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Of course, there was a law prior to Mount Sinai, which God says Abraham kept: Galatians 3:19 KJV [19] Wherefore then serveth the (Mosaic ceremonial and sacrificial) law? It was added (to the Ten Commandments which go all the way back to the beginning) because of transgressions (of the Ten...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    When some of the Israelites went out to gather manna on the Sabbath and God questioned Moses as to how long will Israel refuse to keep His laws, that was in Exodus 16 - way before they got to Sinai - proving that keeping the Sabbath was already a law that existed, albeit forgotten due to 400+...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Moses carved out the stone and God wrote the TEN COMMANDMENTS on them with HIS HANDS. "The works of HIS HANDS are verity and judgment. All HIS COMMANDMENTS are sure..." - Psalms 111:7-8 KJV

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Thank you. The idea that the Ten Commandments didn't exist until Sinai is such a dishonest, juvenile approach to Scripture which appeals only to hypocritical juveniles who boldly insist Christians don't have to keep them but cowardly refuse to publicly declare that we may break them.

    Why It's DISHONEST To Claim The Sabbath Commandment Isn't Found In The NT

    Get it straight - every Christian should be obsessed with the things of God, Sabbath included, which is the "sign" between the Christian and his God according to God. True Christians demonstrate they've been saved through faith by keeping God's commandments, while those who claim to know Him...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    So, why is it the only one you're telling us to forget? The Ten Commandments existed before Exodus and were merely codified in Exodus. You do realize that codification doesn't deny prior existence of the things being codified, right? Look, it's you - not me - that needs lessons for why the...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    The Ten Commandments and the Two Summaries - both are identical. Any dichotomy is a false dichotomy. The One Universal is also identical to them - any trichotomy between them is likewise a false trichotomy.

    Why It's DISHONEST To Claim The Sabbath Commandment Isn't Found In The NT

    He didn't. In fact, the only name He gave to a day was the one He made "holy" and commanded us to keep "holy" - the "Sabbath". The others were simply 1 - 6 with day 6 eventually coming to be known as "preparation day" which means even the other days recognize the preeminence of the Sabbath ;)

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Does all this mean you're going to start keeping the 4th commandment as it's written by working only the first six days of the week and then keep the 7th day Sabbath holy by not working on it, and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    Are you saying the only commandment we're allowed to forget is the only commandment that begins with the word "remember"?

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    "...even Ten Commandments, and He wrote them on two tables of stone." What you've read is "he" - not "Moses" wrote on the tables of stone...but who does "he" refer to? Exodus 34:1 KJV and Deuteronomy 10:1-4 both say the "he" refers to GOD. Not only are the distinctions there, but they totally...

    Why its important to keep the Sabbath

    I've never seen a more blatant example of Biblical inconsistency than your argument that "Jesus our rest" grants us permission to forget the only commandment that begins with the word "Remember" --- while refusing to argue that "Jesus our truth" permits us to lie, or "Jesus our lifegiver"...
